A 10" subwoofer adds the bass kick. Our HD Theater 1000 is a compact, high-definition 5.1 home theater system that's simple to set up and use. It consists of five speakers-left, center and right front channels with two rear surrounds-and one powered subwoofer. All five speakers in this home theater are identical, creating a seamless blend of sound and style. Inside each modern, high-gloss black enclosure, you'll find durable, high-quality components that will provide superior performances for years to come. Each speaker is magnetically shielded-so it won't interfere with your TV picture-and can be positioned vertically or horizontally next to your HDTV or other type of flat-panel. But what makes these speakers truly unique is their horn-loaded technology, an exclusive design that has made Klipsch an industry leader for over 60 years. It allows the HD Theater 1000 to deliver genuine lifelike sound and produce more output, using less energy. In other words, it doesn't require a lot of amplifier power to drive it. In fact, over half of all new theaters in North America and several other countries choose Klipsch professional products because of the amazing benefits of horn technology. This home theater system's subwoofer delivers class-leading, room-shaking bass thanks to a powerful digital hybrid subwoofer amplifier and a 10-inch driver. Featuring a sleek black pica vinyl finish, this hard-hitter also includes traditional volume, crossover and phase controls, so you can customize the level of bass for your room. Sound accounts for half of the home theater experience, whether you're watching a movie or sporting event-or even playing a video game. Your TV is only one piece of the puzzle. It's the audio that drives the action.

Most helpful customer reviews 29 of 31 people found the following review helpful. Great sound, especially when calibrated with Audessey By W. S. Lob My HD 1000 set is coupled with a Denon 890 AVR. I purchased the speakers and receiver to replace a Bose 2.1 Acoustimass III 2.1 setup and a Sony STR DE 845 with a failed protection circuit. The speakers are in a 10x20 space, with seating on one long side and tv on the other (i.e., viewing space is shallow and wide) with a wall on one side and an open L-shaped room on the other, with the subwoofer against the one side wall. The Audessey MultiEQ calibration on the Denon significantly changed and clarified the sound. The calibration resulted in asymmetrical levels but perfect balance at the listening position. The sound is very crisp with great imaging in both stereo and surround modes. The subwoofer, calibrated with its gain at midpoint, ended up at -9.5db. What seemed to be a low value when listening to test tones turns out to be exactly right: powerful, clean bass (as judged by The Roots and SNL via Dolby Digital), but no artificial boominess or rumbling from voices. It is amazing how many commercials use very low frequencies to get attention, something the little Bose subwoofer missed entirely. Stereo music programming via FL+FR+SW (2.1) mode is richer and warmer than I expected. About the only disappointment--and this is not the fault of the HD1000s or the receiver--is that I am now aware of just how much variation there is in source material. I would have love to have heard it side by side with the 300 and 500 models, but there was no such opportunity locally. For the size space I had to fill, I would have purchased the HD 500 but the HD 1000 became available for a slightly lower price. The 1000's slightly larger subwoofer is probably not going to fit cleanly on the bookshelf, but I think my wife and the cats are getting used to it. These speakers are wonderful, but I strongly recommend a receiver capable of frequency calibration. The sound quality is noticeably inferior when set flat. (Again, no fault of the speakers). When coupled with the right receiver--especially one with active calibration--the HD 1000 gets my recommendation. 17 of 17 people found the following review helpful. Clean and crisp By J. Schenck I bought a different HTiB package from a local store based on Harman Kardon 154 and some JVC speakers. It was a good deal but I was not happy with the sound. It was loud and booming but not "full". I returned them and did a lot more homework. I ended up purchasing these Klipsch HDT1000 speakers with an Onkyo 607 receiver. After going through the speaker calibration setup and making sure the speakers were all hooked up properly I am truly amazed at how good this sounds even at lower sound levels. There is plenty of power to rattle the neighbors windows though but what I was looking for is quality sound. This gives me a sound system that is as good if not better than what I hear at the theaters. Another nice aspect is the speakers are not too big. I am able to mount them from the ceiling using basic stalk mounts. They look good and feel solid on the mounts. The sub is big. I have not read too much about the amp built into the 10" sub but it look like it has a lot more capability than I'm taking advantage of now. Hard to believe I got the high end Klipsch system for less than the typical cost of their midrange HDT500 speaker system. I'd buy it again! Amazon and Vanns were great dealers for this equipment. 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful. Awesome price, and sound quality By Jared Kane I bought this about a month ago, it was $530 at the time, I see now it's only $520, but I have no regrets. I am still shocked that I got this as the other person said, for less money than the mid-range set. I never forget that this is a $1,000 speaker set, and it definitely sounds it. I have it hooked up to a Denon 1610 receiver, and it sounds awesome. I just finally this
